- “So... I'll take you with me... ...to the deep dark...”
- —Big Lantern Ghost, Paper Mario
The Big Lantern Ghost is the mid-boss of the Shy Guy's Toy Box from Paper Mario. He is a giant Lantern Ghost with a bandage on his forehead who resides in a dark room.
In battle the player should attack the Big Lantern Ghost's lantern, which in turn causes the room to brighten. When the room is lit enough that the Big Lantern Ghost can be seen, the player can attack him directly. After the Big Lantern Ghost is defeated, the player can shatter the lantern with their Hammer. A Li'l Sparky named Watt will emerge from the lantern. After the player frees her, Watt becomes the player's sixth companion.
Super Mario-Kun flavor text
- 「大きなおしりでヒップドロップとかカンテラフラッシュとかいろいろ攻撃してくるけど、暗やみの攻撃は少しひきょうじゃないですか。だから、かぶりものをとってピカピカにしてやったのだ。」 (He'll Hip Drop you with his big butt or use the Lantern Flash attack, but the Darkness attack is a little unfair isn't it? That's why his headdress was taken away and he was made sparkly.)
